La hierarchie et l’adaptation : comparaison entre Yvain et Ywain and GawainMcKie, Shannon A. 05 1900 (has links)
When comparing Ywain and Gawain with its source, Chretien de Troyes' Yvain. many
critics concentrate on the dramatic omissions and reductions made by the anonymous English
adapter. However, the more subtle differences between the two Arthurian romances also deserve
attention. Since the goal of medieval adapters of secular texts was to rethink and reinvent their
sources, these changes could reveal further aspects of the originality of Ywain and Gawain.
which is generally considered a sophisticated work in its own right.
With this study, I hope to demonstrate that some of the differences in the Middle English
adaptation may signify an effort on the part of the adapter to present his own vision of society
and hierarchy. While it is not possible to situate all the characters on a social scale, the probable
hierarchical relation between many of them can be established based on their lineage, tide or
social position. The present analysis examines modifications in the interaction between some of
these characters—due to the limits of this study, I treat only the cases where at least one female
character is concerned—and the role of hierarchical submission. I explore examples from two
perspectives: that of the characters of lower rank, whose subordination to social superiors is a
basic element of social order, and that of the characters of higher rank, whose standing implies
both their own authority and the submission of their inferiors.
I found that the English poet diminished or omitted many examples that do not respect
hierarchy in Yvain. creating the impression of a more hierarchical society in the adaptation.
That overall impression is not changed by the fact that the adapter also introduced or amplified
other exceptions to the hierarchy, for they are not of an extreme nature and occur only in a
limited context. In fact, these additions seem to follow a logical pattern as well, presenting the
image of a society in which rank and power are linked. Consequently, they too may be
interpreted as part of a coherently modified version of society and hierarchy created by the
author of Ywain and Gawain. / Arts, Faculty of / French, Hispanic, and Italian Studies, Department of / Graduate

Multiplicity and gendering the Holy Grail in The Da Vinci Code and the Mists of AvalonVillasenor-Oldham, Victoria Anne 01 January 2007 (has links)
This thesis explores how both texts - The Da Vinci Code and The Mists of Avalon - write femininity onto the Holy Grail in seemingly problematic ways, and the way in which women's voices, through the feminization of the Grail, are often silenced.

A skeptical feminist exploration of binary dystopias in Marion Zimmer Bradley's The mists of AvalonLindstrom, Alexandra Elizabeth Anita 01 January 2005 (has links)
In Marion Zimmer Bradley's retelling of the Arthurian legends, The Mists of Avalon, she creates two dystopic cultures: Avalon and Camelot. Contrasting Bradley's account of the legends with the traditional version, Sir Thomas Malory's Le Morte d'Arthur, reveals that Bradley's sweeping revisions of the tradition do little to create a feminist ideal. A skeptical questioning of the text's plot and characters with the Women's Movement in mind opens an interpretation of the text as a critique of feminism itself.
